"Bridgerton" star Nicola Coughlan has a simple request for fans: Stop coming to her with comments about her body.
"If you have an opinion about my body please, please don't share it with me," the 35-year-old actress wrote Sunday in a post shared to her verified Instagram and Twitter accounts alongside a mirror selfie.
"Most people are being nice and not trying to be offensive but I am just one real life human being and it's really hard to take the weight of thousands of opinions on how you look being sent directly to you every day," she continued. "If you have an opinion about me that's ok, I understand I'm on TV and that people will have things to think and say but I beg you not to send it to me directly ❤️."
This isn't the first time Coughlan, who plays Penelope Featherington on "Bridgerton" and Clare Devlin on "Derry Girls," has spoken out regarding comments about her body.
In 2018, she wrote an article for The Guardian titled "Critics, judge me for my work in Derry Girls and on the stage, not on my body."
Coughlan shared a Twitter thread in March in which she called for an end to women being asked about their weight in interviews, especially when it's "completely irrelevant."
"Every time I'm asked about my body in an interview it makes me deeply uncomfortable and so sad I'm not just allowed to just talk about the job I do that I so love," she wrote at the time. "It's so reductive to women when we're making great strides for diversity in the arts, but questions like that just pull us backwards."
Jonah Hill shared a similar sentiment in October when he posted the following statement to social media: "I know you mean well but I kindly ask that you not comment on my body ❤️ good or bad I want to politely let you know it's not helpful and doesn't feel good. Much respect."
